Just wow Sony, amazing game after amazing game! They're on a huge roll.

Sorry, euro's....im gonna have to borrow some bandwidth Thursday since i ain't preordering shit from those crooks at GS/EB. Oh and how did you like your little taste of canadiana the other day.....remember, we have to live in that almost 5 months a year! LOL

40 player Resistance games and 32 player Warhawk games work fine for me as well with zero lag 98% of the time.

Don't enjoy Resistances multi play as much though...i thought it was too easy as a Chimera and too hard as a Human in MP. The Chimera can look through walls, run super fast and it only costs half of your health bar. But im really loving the sound of the huge feature set for this one sine its online system was (and still is) by far the best on PS3!

To some extent this is because the PS3 game's leaderboard system isn't neatly integrated with the main console interface the way Xbox Live Arcade's has been

This is the sort of thing that makes me wonder what the hell the online strategy is over at Sony Towers? If relatively small DLC cannot be integrated into the main console...........

Except, the game does (and a few others like Lemmings for one) have a score board system intergrated into your PSN's friends list. I guess the reviewer never hit "select" or maybe it's "R1" to cycle through the different scoreboard lists in the game.

Also, Resistance is the only game to "not" use the PSN buddy list for online.

Thanks for caring enough to go though my forum posts.
And also thanks for not wanting to listen to informed opinions about real-life experiences.
I guess that means you are a perfect target audience for Sony branded products, right?"

All of that crap came out of your hole because some kid wanted to know if his headset would work.

I have mastered the tilt functionality for this game and actually think i prefer it overall. You just have to realize that only very slight tilting motions are needed.

You'll find yourself fighting to do this a first, but now i just kinda hold the controller on my fingertips and gently lean in left/right. When you get spun out or all messed up in a corner you just gotta remember not to start twisting like crazy, just a gentle lean (or i just kinda orient the controller from a -- position to a | position to pull myself back around sharp, it's a little extreme but you know you're turning at the max for sure) and back on the gas/turbo.

The real beauty is when you get air born, it's so easy a natural to just gently lean and tilt the controller forward/back left right to make your landings perfect and readjust after taking a bump in the air or taking a jump wrong.

"The PS3 is clearly more expensive than its' competitors, but I remember when I bought my Euro-launch PS2 it was £300"

...but the PS2's only rival at launch was the Dreamcast which was almost dead by the time the PS2 came out. The Xbox and GameCube didn't come out until a year later. And £300 is substantially less than £425.

For the record the Dreamcast was selling quite well when the PS2 came out.

I remeber hearing a few months prior to the PS2's arrival that it had already sold over 5 million units and i was considering picking one up myself.

It was months after the PS2 came out that the Dreamcast just fell apart.

....aahhh yes, running the JPN import of the original on my NA Playstation. Anyone remember using some putty to start the system with the CD door open and then swapping in a import game after you got a boot code in the CD player menu from the US one? Yes i'm old. lol

Wow, considering the rate i was losing braincells back then (and still am), i'm surprised i remember that. Reply0

It sounded to me like you have one identity, but you attach different sub accounts for different games to that, So when go to login, it would use the relevant id for that game. If you wanted to sheen over that, you could say it is a "single login".
ignore poster"

Ummmm, right. *rolls eyes*

This is from the article you're commenting on....

"wishes to be clear that Resistance uses the PlayStation online ID to sign into the game. There is no separate login for Resistance and the online ID you create will be the same you use for all titles."

Partly that's due to the limitations of Sony's hardware: the game is more difficult to control than previous Ace Combat games, primarily because the lack of a second analog stick means that it's difficult to yaw and pitch or roll at the same time.

TOTALY UNFORGIVEABLE"

Except, real jets are "also" flown with one stick.

Left - right, banks.

Up - down, pitch and yaw.

This reviewer is a moron, sorry. It's obvious he's digging for anything bad he can find.

Great game, but the lack of a 480p option makes it unplayable in a big plasma or lcd display."

Naw, the game is pretty good as far as aliasing goes. It holds up good on a big screen.

Although theres no 480p support (i know i was pissed too) there is widescreen support (yay!!) and an option called "Flicker Filter" that helps smooth things out quite a bit, don't ask me why theres an option to turn it on or off, it makes quite a difference on and you'll want toleave it.

...like i said the game is looking beautiful on my 42 inch plasma. Don't be scared. Reply0

I agree that the vast majority do not have the PC hooked up to the telly.
But I don't think that matters a great deal. MS's dream of the 360 taking over the whole entertainment of your life is a long way off.

I don't see MS "ever" doing this.

They'd be killing their cash cow, Windows. Remember the xbox makes them no money...and would never give them the money their OS'es have.

This is one of the reasons i think MS will never update our dashboards to have a web browser or make the Xbox do anything that would make the PC obsolete Reply0

If sony deliver a free service to rival Live, then I'll bet a quid that it'll be provided at a loss!"

But by the same token, Sony has content people really want to buy. MS on the other hand has to go around begging for content, make a deal here or there...but no constant flow from their Film, TV and music divisions.

Sony stands to make a ton of money off content transactions and they know it. Reply0
